The ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 radios are among the most sophisticated
two-way radios available. The radios are available in the 764-870 MHz
band.
The ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 radio provides improved voice quality
across more coverage area. The digital process, called "embedded
signaling," intermixes system signaling information with digital voice,
resulting in improved system reliability, and the capability of
supporting a multitude of advanced features.
ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 radios are available in three basic models.
Table 1 describes their basic features.

The ASTRO Digital XTS 5000 radio utilizes Motorola's FLASHport
technology. FLASHport makes it possible to add software that drives
the radio's capabilities both at the time of purchase and later on.
Previously, changing a radio's features and capabilities meant
significant modifications, or buying a new radio. But now, similar to
how a computer can be loaded with different software, the radio's
features and capabilities can be upgraded with FLASHport software.
